Ann McKenzie, 02/06/2010This is a very dark movie but so is the subject matter. I like that it gives a very strong message to be mindful of false prophets and it wasn't cheesy like a lot of Christian movies get flack for. I wouldn't consider it a "feel good" or "family" movie. If you have young childeren I wouldn't watch it with them. However all in all it was a high quality film.

Joyce Leonard, 01/06/2010A scary movie--but still with a Christian theme. Unlike other horror movies, evil doesn't come from some nameless force but from the devil himself. And how to counter it? With Christ and His teachings. Would be a good movie for teenagers--they'd love the scariness of it, but still get a thought provoking message from it. Great acting too, and I always love Randy Travis movies.

Kevin Frisby, 05/12/2009This is a very dark film but considering what the movie is about, it almost has to be! This is an interesting film about false teachers and false prophets. All of the cast did an excellent job and I thought this was a great film. Not a movie for children but it is a movie with a powerful message!

Donna Duvall, 10/01/2007I found it a little odd and disturbing. I felt weird even watching it, like I was doing something wrong.

Carmen Munoz-Jackson, 06/20/2007If you have read the book, you will not enjoy this movie. They changed so many things, it is almost a different story all together. I had read other reviews that said it was bad, but I just had to see for myself...and they were right.

David Mackey, 03/04/2006Namesake Entertainment and Signal Hill Pictures do it once again, releasing top-notch quality entertainment in a market well-known everywhere for its often at best mediocre films.
This films a solid cast and crew including names such as Martin Donovan, Eddy Furlong, Richard Tyson, Kelly Lynch, Ralph Winters, and Robby Henson. It also includes cameo-esque roles by Joe Goodman (CEO Namesake) and David White (Signal Hill Pictures, lead in Mercy Streets).
The film definetly stretches the boundaries of Christian film with its dark and violent nature, but at the same time is exuberating in its pictures of the triumph of good over evil.
The film includes moments of comedy which amazingly meld well with the generally dark and suspenseful nature of the film, something which is rarely accomplished in any film - Christian or secular.
The acting is solid, with Eddy Furlong giving an amazing and moving performance at the climax of the film. The special effects are solid, there is very little to complain about.
